Along with our partners, we’re excited to deliver the best Windows ever, which will empower people and organisations around the world to do great things.”
Microsoft revealed that upgrading to Windows 10 is easy for customers running a genuine Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 PC or tablet. Starting Wednesday, people who reserved their upgrade to Windows 10 will be notified in waves when their upgrade is ready to be installed.
